Document Description
The Project intends to develop a new community college campus to serve the residents of the greater Tehachapi area. The campus will be developed in phases:
• Phase 1: Consists of a combined total of 19,320 square feet of general education
instructional buildings with four modular buildings, a 375 square-foot storage
building, a 17 4-space parking lot, pathways, landscaping, a proposed on-site
stormwater retention basin and 20 foot drainage easement, and other internal
infrastructure.
• Phase 2: Includes the development of an approximately 39,000 square-foot two story classroom building. The four modular buildings will be removed when the permanent classroom building is completed.
Construction:
Phase 1 buildout will take approximately four months. Phase 2 building may take
approximately one year to complete. Therefore, full buildout of the campus will take
approximately 16 months. It is anticipated that the following pieces of equipment would be used during construction activities:
• Roller
• Loaded trucks
• Excavator
• Generator
• Service truck
• Air compressor
Operation
• At full buildout, the general education building with up to seven classrooms will
be available and are expected to serve on average 200 to 300 students per day.
Maximum enrollment at the campus would be up to approximately 500 students.
• Classes are expected to be held Monday through Thursday, typically between 11
am and 8 pm. It is expected that seven employees will also regularly work out the
instructional facilities. To maintain the facility, three employees will be dedicated
for maintenance and operations.
Entitlements:
• Rezone the subject parcels from the M-1 (Light Industrial) conventional zone
district to the SD-2 (Special District) transect zone district.
